Xog

lol rootbear why the hate ! anyways, I give in. Time: 11:19. I need some help. I feel like such an idiot. What am I missing here? Total hours wasted in confusion: 1hr. 30 minutes. Took me about 20 to write the whole thing, but I just got confused and can't figure out what I'm doing wrong! #Simple Lotto program import random import time picked = 0 #Greeting print('''Hello! Welcome to Xog\'s Lotto Application. Thank you for taking the time to test my application out. To play this Lotto game, I want you to pick three numbers from 1 through 5.''') #Waits for 2 seconds. time.sleep(2) #Getting to know you print('Don\'t get hasty! First, I want you to tell me your name. Please type it in and press Enter.') name = input() print('Hello, ' + name + ', my name is Xog.') #Number picking number = random.randint(1, 5) print('Okay, now that we know eachother a little bit, I think it\'s time we begin.') while picked < 3: print('Please pick a number from 1 through 5.') playerPicked1 = input() playerPicked1 = int(playerPicked1) picked = picked + 1 # print('Pick your second number, between 1 and 5, that you did not pick.') playerPicked2 = input() playerPicked2 = int(playerPicked2) picked = picked + 1 # print('Pick your third and last number, between 1 and 5, that you did not pick.') playerPicked3 = input() playerPicked3 = int(playerPicked3) picked = picked + 1 #while picked < 3: # print('Pick your second number, between 1 and 5, that you did not pick.') # playerPicked2 = input() # playerPicked2 = int(playerPicked2) #picked = picked + 1 #if picked < 3: # print ('Pick your third and last number, between 1 and 5, that you did not pick.') # playerPicked3 = input() # playerPicked3 = int(playerPicked3) #picked = picked + 1 if playerPicked1 or playerPicked2 or playerPicked3 == number: number = str(number) print('The lotto number was ' + number + '! Congratulations! You\'ve just won $500 Hyperspace Dollars!') time.sleep(3) print('Well.. Okay, maybe not the money.') if playerPicked1 and playerPicked2 and playerPicked3 != number: number = str(number) print('Sorry, the last number was ' + number + '.') ## if playerPicked1 != number: ## number = str(number) ## print('Sorry, the last number was ' + number + '.') ##if playerPicked2 != number: ## number = str(number) ## print('Sorry, the last number was ' + number + '.') ##if playerPicked3 != number: ## number = str(number) ## print('Sorry, the last number was ' + number + '.') print('Thanks for playing Xog\'s lotto!') the return after the name is: Okay, now that we know eachother a little bit, I think it's time we begin. Please pick a number from 1 through 5. 1 Pick your second number, between 1 and 5, that you did not pick. 2 Pick your third and last number, between 1 and 5, that you did not pick. 4 The lotto number was 3! Congratulations! You've just won $500 Hyperspace Dollars! Well.. Okay, maybe not the money. Sorry, the last number was 3. Thanks for playing Xog's lotto! Not making sense!!!

10:00 Time in!

Pausing at 8:00. New show coming on TV, and I'm getting a bit confused. I really want to get back to it though, but gf wants company It's just one little part that's messing me up. I don't want to ask questions yet though!

Alright then! Here we go. Start time: 7:30 PM

Well, in the tutorial we're given new program source for simple games.. I do change stuff up to see if different things work, once I'm finished with the chapter. I know what you mean though. If you really think I should just start stop and write a little program just for the experience, give me an assignment for something (like a test I suppose) based on what I've learned so far and I'll try and do it. When I'm done I'll continue the tutorial Preferrably one that deals with if, while, else, or, and, and def "Write a program that will.."

3 nights ago I told him I wanted to do a show and that you weren't online. I then asked him if he had access to the server and he said no. :\

dez, whenever I want to do a radio show you're not online -_______-

Why can't this just be added right after the Jackpot SVS zone on the list? I'm pretty sure if you copied that over it would work.

.....

In order for TW to comply, yes. They're rule Nazis. Apparently saying the N word even if it's not used in a harmful context will get you banned.

I've decided to not write any of my own code until I'm completely done with the 19 chapter tutorial. I think messing around with code before I understand everything is what started to get me confused and led to me quitting, so I'm going to hold off on it.

Ah, I actually never noticed that before. Thanks!

pretty simple solution.. if ur on a basing freq, start at a differnt spawn location o_O fail xog stfu - u need to get to the hypergate to get to a base!

And all of that could have been prevented by a simple agreement on rules before anything was done (even though I understand you were rushed)

Since this is the "Subspace Forum" why not list all forums that are available to every zone? I see a few missing I understand that the zone sections listed on this forum are FOR this forum, but why not atleast create a part on the forum's zone list to atleast redirect you to the main zone's forum (like forums.trenchwars.org etc)

First kick was okay given the situation. He's allowed to do that. Second kick warranted no meaning at all. If he wanted you to stay out of the zone for a specific amount of time, there's a command for that. In turn, both of you were wrong. rootbear was wrong in the fact that he actually whined this much about it. ceuieuiu was wrong in the fact that he didn't use the proper commands. He also didn't give any warning.

I really hope this is all just a mixup and a blowing-out-of-proportion by the media. If it's not, that's just wrong. Granted the parents gave up the children to the missionaries themselves from the village, this is what I'm lead to believe. I really hope I'm right.

[Feb 04 22:17] Arobas+: hey, i have some nice data from google analytics that I would like to share with you. ex: we are having more visitor from subspacedownloads.com since dec 20th. Xog> ?message Arobas+:That sounds great! What other kind of information would you might want from me? If there's anything else you'd like to share or would like to question, my email is ----. I usually answer within a few minutes on there.

LOL, did you even notice my avatar is upside down, and PoLiX's is upside right? When I imitated Dr. Brain's, I turned it sideways and wrote a small "Xog" in white over a blue part. Then some moderator changed my avatar to a sideways Mona Lisa with the word Xog written on it. (Very humorous!) So I decided to copy PoLiX's. Fine, I'll change it if it would really make you happy

Since I don't really have a blog account, and I didn't want to fill up one of my other topics I've made in the HS's Zone Development forum section with off-topic chat, thought I'd share here. Been learning Python for a couple of days. Over the past 5 years or so I've tried to pick up various languages through online tutorials, and eventually give up after a few days from pure confusion and boredom. I really think I've found the perfect online tutorial (it's also a published book, and it's 100% free: view and/or download at http://inventwithpython.com/ ) Why you ask? Because throughout this tutorial I've noticed that in the notes I'm writing down, I tend to make a lot of visual diagrams, and so does he - like below, or because python is just that great of a language to begin from. The first language I picked up was HTML, that was when I was 14, and over the past 5 7 (math fail! gogo gadget HS Dropout!) years I've tried picking up C, C++, and C# multiple times, and Java once (I had to stop learning Java because I had important things going on) http://img195.imageshack.us/img195/5624/10348586.png I know that's a very basic code line, I'm just using it as an example of what I mean by visuals. I've noticed that my learning ability was hampered when I was in school, because none of my teachers did anything like this. Pure text can sometimes get me confused when I'm learning (I won't have any problem writing it though - I'm a great writer, and I think I'll be great when writing programs once I understand). I've written 7 pages of little notes, pictures, diagrams and definitions. I feel really good about myself right now - more so than I have in a long time (while sober, atleast). I'm impressed with myself. I'm sure this is practically nothing to you guys, but trust me I have big issues with self esteem. I never really thought I could get this far. Right now, I'm entering Chapter 8 - that's about 40% complete with the tutorial. When I'm done with this, which should probably be a couple weeks because I've taken a peek at the coming chapters and they look a bit rough, plus I'm constantly taking notes to make sure I remember and can look back and study it easily, I think I'm going to look through the different .py scripts in \asss\asss-1.4.4\scripts and see if I can make very detailed comments so I can see what I don't understand and what I do understand. I think it would be a good exercise. I've taken a quick glance and noticed that I actually understand a very very large portion of what I saw, and I'm sure if I sat down and tried to read it a bit more in-depth I could figure it out. If anyone's got any other exercises they do/have done as they were going along, please feel free to share. I know a lot of you have great programming skills, and we all started like this at one point. So far what I've learned and fully understand: Integers and Floating Point NumbersExpressionsValuesOperatorsEvaluating ExpressionsStoring Values in VariablesFlow of executionStringsString concatenationData types (such as strings or integers)Using IDLE to write source code.Saving and running programs in IDLE.The print() function.The input() function.CommentsCapitalizing variablesCase-sensitivityOverwriting variablesimport statementsModulesArgumentswhile statementsConditionsBlocksBooleansComparison operatorsThe difference between = and ==.if statementsThe break keyword.The str() and int() functions.The random.randint() function.Using print()'s end keyword argument to skip newlines.Escape characters.Using single quotes and double quotes for strings.The time module.The time.sleep() function.The return keyword.Creating our own functions with the def keyword.The and and or and not boolean operators.Truth tablesVariable scope (Global and Local)Parameters and ArgumentsFlow chartsASCII artDesigning our game by drawing a flow chart before programming.

Another one bites the dust*

Had a little chat with adam and DoCk> a few weeks ago and they were telling me to learn C# first. Were you mentioning C first so that I can start coding for you or was it an honest suggestion? :-p

Nobody would ever be able to send me a private message if they didn't know what arena I was in! But but but... how would they be able to ban you? :-D
